Post some sample code, and show what doesn't work; maybe you'll get some help that way.
I'll point out just one thing: you cannot add new local variables at runtime. locals() should be used to inspect, not to modify.
See the help text:
"The contents of this dictionary should not be modified; changes may not affect
the values of local variables used by the interpreter"
I have no idea if exec() can be safely called recursively. Most people successfully avoid calling it at all.
